Readable Names

the glyph names are derived from the AGL with some adjustments. For glyphs not in that list a name is invented. It’s mostly based on the unicode description but heavily edited to produce short and readable names. To distinguish different scripts, a hyphen+script tag is appended. For common scripts like Arabic and Cyrillic a short version is used (-ar, -cy). Most other scripts just get the full script name to make it easier for people that are not familiar with those scripts.

Ideograph Entries

The Ideographs and Han glyphs are in a separate file to make it more manageable.

Contribution

Please fork the repository and send pull requests for missing scripts, changes and misspellings.

Todo and known issues

The list does not cover the full Unicode. I add script ranges on request as i like to check/edit the results and that is easier if someone involved in that script is around.
